Grilled Corn with Cilantro Lime Butter

A SUMMER STAPLE! Butter, cilantro, garlic, lime, chili powder, and paprika. Option to grill or roast corn. SO GOOD!
How good does this cilantro lime butter sound?
Because it’s pretty bomb. So bomb, you’ll want to make it all the time to slather on basically everything – pasta, steak, salmon, rice. EVERYTHING.
But my favorite all-star combo is on grilled corn. That perfectly charred, natural sweetness of the corn combined with the cilantro lime-y butter, melting oh-so-perfectly while the corn is still hot.
Oyyyyyyy. It’s too good. And there can never be “enough” butter on your corn, right?
So just slather on how little or how much your heart desires.
